80069482 - Third Annual Fundamentals of Mechanical Ventilation for the Practicing Intensivist

Wednesday, April 15, 2026, 8:00 AM - Friday, April 17, 2026, 5:30 PM, Mt. Washington Conference Center, Baltimore, MD


The fundamentals of mechanical ventilation course will be an inperson 2.5 day course. The curriculum is founded in pulmonary physiology applied to the mechanical ventilator including concepts covering Ohms Law, the equation of motion, pulmonary resistance, pulmonary compliance, autoPEEP and ventilator asynchronies. The educational content will be delivered via a series of peer reviewed didactics, small group exercised and simulation. We have a ventilator simulator and a series of cases and pathologies for application of knowledge. This course has been previously delivered to Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellows and has been modified and adapted for an attending knowledge base.
